Hello s2k forum. So I'm new to the forum but have posted a couple of threads without introducing myself and my S2k. I'm from north Jersey. Am a veteran and own a liquor store. I have a 17ft boat , a 2014 Sienna, a 2020 civic si coup. I've had a 1987 celica hatch back stick (my first car), a park avenue, a subaru, accord, a 626, a 2dr Blazer, a 4runner and a highlander. I recently purchased a s2000 2002 from my neighbor who bought it for his son who didn't appreciate it. The kid didn't like it and bought a bmw. Go figure. I'm an opportunist. The kid had done some work to it. This is what I got for 8k
:new ray volk wheels but had to buy new tires
Oem wheels
K&n intake
Stock intake
Sparko steering wheel
Stock steering wheel
New skunk 2 coilovers but had to do alignment
skunk 2 exhaust with delete (very loud)
Hks headers
New fender liners
Rolled fenders (****er).
Here's what it needed so far that has been done:
clutch with slave and master
New tires and alignment
Put in updated oil squirter bolts
Updated retainers
New vtec solenoid
Plugs and packs
Fuel regulator
Some new bushings.
Powder coated valve covers
Changed all fluids.
had a crack control arm and replaced it
All in at rougly 10.5k. The s2k needs a serious paint job and probably needs a fuel pump which is on its way. But yeah thats about it and am grateful for this community. I am loving the S2k. I love the car. I love the attention it gets. My si is awesome as well being its a a 2dr and relatively less seen. But that s2k boy. I'm in love. It's such a dream to drive. Let me know what you think of my buy and what color I should paint it. Originally it was silver. I'm the 12 owner. It came from Texas to florida to me.

Welcome! You had most of us with "Am a veteran and own a liquor store." And that sweet pup!

I like the blue it has. But it definitely needs new paint but maybe a pearl blue? What you think? Or white to match my civic si coup 2020

someone hit me the first day I got it. Some dumb luck. Fml

 

Paint is such a personal topic. I wanted to paint my car black when I first bought it but the yellow has grown on me.


The A-10 is just bad ass. If you’ve ever heard that gun…bbbrrrrrrrrrrrrp!!!

Early morning in the dirty south



good job getting the car back up to snuff.

 

looks really nice l. I would love yellow but idk.

 

Welcome to S2KI, Ivan! and 'boop' to the pupper!

 

Thanks I think.
